MLK’s birthday should be changed to Election Day. No extra day off, and everyone goes into the polls reminded of his legacy.

Not often purposely. It’s more like once you know how to see it, it’s hard to turn it off. E.g. the other day I saw magic mushrooms growing near my house. I can teach you how to see that, but I can’t teach you to unsee it.

Yeah there are a lot of mushrooms that are listed as deadly poisonous in field guides, but that lots of people eat anyway. And there are other mushrooms that are listed as edible, but that kill some of the people who eat them. I've nev

> He accidently poisoned himself? Unheard of for passionate mushroom hunters! Poisoning yourself with false hellebore suggests he might have been a little unhinged. You’d have to be pretty impulsive to do that.

100% a real thing. I haven't heard of anyone actually getting into an accident due to looking for mushrooms while driving, or at least admitting to it, probably in part because it's a hobby that people don't usually take up u

Only one glass a day, so maybe 20oz. I was working out of a coffee shop, and would have an iced coffee or a latte in the morning but then wanted something non caffeinated in the early afternoon. I think the combination of the large coffee a

Yeah I think I gave myself some minor bladder damage just by drinking iced mint tea (since it's such a strong diuretic), so I can't imagine I'd react well to ketamine even in small doses.
